29d • Writting from Emotion
…
too long now
have i been taking this road
another door opens
while a favorite gets closed
a moment of happiness
has become one of pain
i wish i could explain this
to help others understand
i don’t wish for this anymore
the life that i have been left to lead
it’s taken far too much from me
it’s left my soul to do nothing but bleed
i no longer feel like myself
it feels like I’ve become lost
yet i keep walking around on this earth
alive, but at what cost?
they told me life would be difficult
that it will never come easy
but nobody told me it would feel this way
they never warned me of how much of life would leave me
i’m not even thirty years old yet
and i have lost more than most have
time, energy, and people
tell me what i did for life to feel this bad?
i thought i knew everything
that i had all the answers to life
but i couldn’t be anymore wrong
and now all i can do is try to survive
but i’m so tired of living this way
to be stuck in a perpetual state of survival
i just want to live life like everyone else
but i can’t without some kind of revival
i hate that i always feel this way
nobody likes a sad song
i just want to find a world
that i can just finally feel like i belong
but alas i will keep trudging on
because i have no other choice
i’ll keep going on like nothing’s wrong
until i learn to find my own voice.
